Song Parody

Original Song

My Parody

Count on me
Oh uh-huh
If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of
the sea
I'll sail the world to find you
If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you
can't see
I'll be the light to guide you

Dance with me
Oh uh-huh
If you ever take away that shyness that you
have
Ill come to you and talk
If you ever have a question how I usually
behave
Ill answer you while we will walk

We find out what we're made of

When we are called to help our friends in
need

Friendship`s what we always need

When you're in troubles ask your friends to
help

You can count on me like 1, 2, 3

I'll be there
And I know when I need it
I can count on you like 4, 3, 2
And you'll be there
'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do,
oh yeah
Ooooooh, oooohhh yeah, yeah

You can dance with me like 1, 2, 3

Its easy
And I know when Ill be sad
I can dance with you like 4, 3, 2
It will be breezy
Cause thats what dancing does with us,
oh yeah
Oooooooh Ooooooooh Yeah Yeah

If you're tossin' and you're turnin'

And you just can't fall asleep
I'll sing a song beside you
And if you ever forget how much you really
mean to me
Every day I will remind you

If youre puffing and youre laughing

That you just cant have some rest
Ill be with you to help you
And if you ever forget what friendship really
means to me
All the time I will remind you

Oooh
We find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in
need

Oooh
Friendship`s what we always need
When you're in trouble ask your friends to
help
